Health & Education Cess - 4%

The Income-tax, as increased by the surcharge or as reduced by the rebate under section 87A, if applicable, is to be further increased by an additional surcharge called “HEALTH & EDUCATION CESS @ 4%”

Circular No. 28/2016, dated 27-07-2016, B'day 1st April -> 31st.March

Circular - The CBDT has, vide this Circular, clarified that a person born on 1st April would be considered to have attained a particular age on 31st March, a day preceding their actual birthday. Hence the question of attainment of age for being considered a senior or very senior citizen would be decided on the basis of this above criteria

ANALYSIS - An individual who is resident in INDIA and of the age of 60 years or more (Senior Citizen) and 80 years or more (Very Senior Citizen) is eligible for a higher basic exemption limit ₹ 3,00,000 and ₹ 5,00,000 respectively.

Earlier

IF 60th B’day or 80th B’day on 1st April 2019, then it was considered that they attained Seniority or Super Seniority in the PY 2019 - 2020, hence in AY 2020 - 2021 they would be given the benefit of higher basic exemption limit

Now

IF 60th B’day or 80th B’day on 1st April 2019, then it will be considered that they attained Seniority or Super Seniority on 31st March 2019. Hence in the PY 2018 - 2019 only they would be considered senior or super senior, and in AY 2019 - 2020 they would be given the benefit of higher basic exemption limit

Please note that the benefit of higher basic exemption limit is only available a “RESIDENT INDIVIDUAL”, so if the assessee is a Non Resident Individual no point in computing age, hence no point of this circular.

Be careful if the assessee in the question is a resident individual with B’day on 1.4.1959, he would be having his 60th B’day on 1.4.2019 but as per this notification his B’day would be considered on 31.3.2019 and hence he would attain the benefit of higher exemption limit from the AY 2019-2020

Be careful if the assessee in the question is a resident individual with B’day on 1.4.1939, he would be having his 80th B’day on 1.4.2019 but as per this notification his B’day would be considered on 31.3.2019 and hence he would attain the benefit of higher exemption limit from the AY 2019-2020

Circular - Income by way of salary, received by non-resident seafarers, for services rendered outside India on a foreign going ship (with Indian flag or foreign flag) and received into the NRE bank account maintained with an Indian bank shall not be included in the total income

ANALYSIS - Non Residents are only taxed in India on INDIAN INCOME. To be an Indian Income, either the Income has to be,

Received in India

Accrued in India

Deemed Received in India

Deemed Accrued in India

Earlier

Non Resident seafarers earning income by way of salary for services rendered outside India for a foreign going ship (with Indian flag or foreign flag) and received into the NRE bank account maintained with an Indian bank was considered Indian Income because it was deemed received in India.

With the effect of Circular 13/2017 and 17/2017 it is clarified that it will not be deemed received in India, hence Income by way of salary, received by non-resident seafarers, for services rendered outside India on a foreign going ship (with Indian flag or foreign flag) and received into the NRE bank account maintained with an Indian bank will be foreign income, and foreign income is not taxable to non residents

Why is it necessary to find whether an income accruing or arising outside India has a business connection with India or not?

It is very important to find whether the income earned is Indian income or Foreign Income to understand its tax effect. Foreign Incomes are incomes which are

Neither Received in India

Nor Accrued in India

Nor Deemed Received in India

Nor Deemed Accrued in India

An income accruing or arising outside India would be deemed received in India if the income had any business connection in India by virtue of section 9(1). Business connection is not defined, its to be interpreted from case to case. However to remove doubts, two scenarios have been explained under explanation 2 and explanation 2A of section 9(1). Scenarios mentioned in explanation 2 and explanation 2A of section 9(1) will be considered to have business connection with India.

Explanation 2

ACT - Explanation 2.—For the removal of doubts, it is hereby declared that "business connection" shall include any business activity carried out through a person who, acting on behalf of the non-resident,—

(a) has and habitually exercises in India, an authority to conclude contracts on behalf of the non-resident or habitually concludes contracts or habitually plays the principal role leading to conclusion of contracts by that non-resident and the contracts are -

in the name of the non-resident; or

for the transfer of the ownership of, or for the granting of the right to use, property owned by that non-resident or that non-resident has the right to use; or

for the provision of services by the non-resident; or

(b) has no such authority, but habitually maintains in India a stock of goods or merchandise from which he regularly delivers goods or merchandise on behalf of the non-resident; or

(c) habitually secures orders in India, mainly or wholly for the non-resident or for that nonresident and other non-residents controlling, controlled by, or subject to the same common control, as that non-resident:

Provided that such business connection shall not include any business activity carried out through a broker, general commission agent or any other agent having an independent status, if such broker, general commission agent or any other agent having an independent status is acting in the ordinary course of his business :

Provided further that where such broker, general commission agent or any other agent works mainly or wholly on behalf of a non-resident (hereafter in this proviso referred to as the principal non-resident) or on behalf of such non-resident and other non-residents which are controlled by the principal non-resident or have a controlling interest in the principal non-resident or are subject to the same common control as the principal nonresident, he shall not be deemed to be a broker, general commission agent or an agent of an independent status.

Analysis -

Explanation 2A

ACT - Explanation 2A.—For the removal of doubts, it is hereby clarified that the significant economic presence of a non-resident in India shall constitute "business connection" in India and "significant economic presence" for this purpose, shall mean—

(a) transaction in respect of any goods, services or property carried out by a non-resident in India including provision of download of data or software in India, if the aggregate of payments arising from such transaction or transactions during the previous year exceeds such amount as may be prescribed; or

(b) systematic and continuous soliciting of business activities or engaging in interaction with such number of users as may be prescribed, in India through digital means:

Provided that the transactions or activities shall constitute significant economic presence in India, whether or not,—

the agreement for such transactions or activities is entered in India; or

the non-resident has a residence or place of business in India; or

the non-resident renders services in India:

Provided further that only so much of income as is attributable to the transactions or activities referred to in clause (a) or clause (b) shall be deemed to accrue or arise in India.

Royalty income or fees for technical services received from National Technical Research Organisation (NTRO) - Section 10(6D) - New Exemption

ACT - In computing the total income of a previous year of any person, any income falling within any of the following clause shall not be included,

any income arising to a non-resident, not being a company, or a foreign company, by way of royalty from, or fees for technical services rendered in or outside India to, the National Technical Research Organisation

Actually there is no Amendment, Section 33B was inserted way before Finance Act 2018 and also the meaning of export turnover was always mentioned in Section 10AA. The reason why I am including this in my notes of amendments is because in the ICAI study module edition July 2017 there was no mention of section 33B and Explanation of Export Turnover whiles in the ICAI study module edition July 2018 these were included.

Section 10AA provided Tax Holidays for units established in Special Economic Zones, but one of the underlying condition to attain the tax benefit was that the unit should not be formed by splitting up or reconstruction of a business already in existence. However Section 33B lists exception to this

ACT - Section 33B - Where the business of any industrial undertaking carried on in India is discontinued in any previous year by reason of extensive damage to, or destruction of, any building, machinery, plant or furniture owned by the assessee and used for the purposes of such business as a direct result of —

(i) flood, typhoon, hurricane, cyclone, earthquake or other convulsion of nature ; or(ii) riot or civil disturbance ; or(iii) accidental fire or explosion ; or(iv) action by an enemy or action taken in combating an enemy (whether with or without a declaration of war),and, thereafter, at any time before the expiry of three years from the end of such previous year, the business is re-established, reconstructed or revived by the assessee

Earlier

Any transport allowance granted to an employee other than blind/ deaf and dumb/ orthopedically handicapped employee to meet his expenditure for the purpose of commuting between the place of his residence and the place of his duty was exempt to the extent of ₹ 1,600 p.m.

Now

Any transport allowance granted to an employee other than blind/ deaf and dumb/ orthopedically handicapped employee to meet his expenditure for the purpose of commuting between the place of his residence and the place of his duty is FULLY TAXABLE.

Transport Allowance are allowance specifically provided to meet the cost of commuting between place of residence and place of office

Transport Allowance and Travelling Allowance are not the same, the later is provided to meet up the cost of travel on tour or on transfer

Transport Allowance and Conveyance Allowance are not the same, the later is provided to meet the expenditure incurred on conveyance in performance of duties of an office

There is no change in Transport Allowance exemption limit provided to employees who is blind/ deaf and dumb/ orthopedically handicapped, hence they would still get exemption upto the extent of ₹ 3,200 p.m.

Payment / Reimbursement of expenditure actually incurred on medical treatment (It may be noted that this was expenditure which was not incurred in Gov. hospitals or for Prescribed diseases or Premiums under scheme of CG or IRDA)

Section 28 widened, now two new types of income shall also be chargeable to income tax under the head “Profits and gains of business or profession”

Any compensation received or receivable, whether revenue or capital, in connection with the termination or the modification of the terms and conditions of any contract relating to its business shall be taxable as business income. Section 28(ii)(e)

Fair market value of inventory on its conversion as capital asset: Fair market value of inventory on the date of its conversion or treatment as capital asset, determined in the prescribed manner, would be chargeable to tax as business income. Section 28(via)

Section 28(via) and Section 45(2) are brother sister sections.

Trading in Agricultural Commodity Derivatives will NOT be deemed speculative even though they were not charged of Commodities Transaction Tax

An eligible transaction in respect of trading in commodity derivatives carried out in a recognised association, which is chargeable to commodities transaction tax under Chapter VII of the Finance Act, 2013 will not be Deemed Speculative Transaction.

Now, the requirement of chargeability of commodities transaction tax is not applicable in respect of trading in agricultural commodity derivatives from A.Y. 2019-20.

Hence Trading in Agricultural Commodity Derivatives will NOT be deemed speculative even though they were not charged of Commodities Transaction Tax.

Finding Full value of Consideration while comparing Consideration Received and Stamp Duty Value

In section 50C and 43CA we have to compare Consideration Received with Stamp Duty Value to find Full value of Consideration.

Earlier

ACT - If the Consideration Received was less than Stamp Duty Value, then Stamp Duty Value should be considered as Full value of Consideration for the purpose of computing income.

Now

ACT - If the Consideration Received was less than Stamp Duty Value, then Stamp Duty Value should be considered as Full value of Consideration for the purpose of computing income.However, if the stamp duty value does not exceed 105% of the consideration received or accruing then, such consideration shall be deemed to be the full value of consideration for the purpose of computing profits and gains from transfer of such asset.

Sec 112A - Most Imporant

For best understanding watch the Youtube video in which we have explaied it. Also on Monday we will provide you with a lot of practice sums on this topic. There is a lot of confusion about correctly intrepretting, summarising and making a comprehensive learning of the section 112A. Dont worry, I have done all the hard work for that. The trick is dont think you are learing 112A, rather we have to think about 3 Capital Assets and learning their Tax treatment, while doing that we will automatically learn 112A. Those 3 Capital Assets are - Listed Equity Shares, Units of Equity Oriented Fund & Units of Business Trust.

Now Step 1. is to learn which section applies when, as Listed Equity Shares, Units of Equity Oriented Fund & Units of Business Trust - they can attract Sec 111A, 112 or 112A depending upon different senarios. The symbol implies that it does not matter paid or not. Also STT - A implies Securities Transaction Tax paid on Aquisition and STT - T implies Securities Transaction Tax paid on Transfer

Now that we know when does which section applies

Step 2 - Lets find how to compute gain and tax under various sections
